This document forms part of one of the implementation phases of the pilot Health
Satellite Accounts project and its aim is to describe in detail the methodological work
employed during the different stages involved in constructing the system. In other
words, it provides an introduction to the guiding methodological principles behind the
implementation of the Health Satellite Account in Portugal.
Chapter I presents the essential principles underlying its development, the objectives it
aims to achieve and the bodies that have contributed to its preparation and
production.
Chapter II contains a detailed explanation of the methodology used in each of the
phases of the work, which consisted in establishing an inventory and classification
system for the universe, the compilation of data, the consolidation of results and the
completion of Tables 2 to 5, as envisaged in the OECD SHA manual.
In the conclusion of the methodological description the limitations encountered in the
process of compilation are described as awell as the main methodological and
conceptual differences between national accounts and the Health Satellite Accounts
that result in differences in the figures are detailed.

CCHHAAPPTTEERR II –– OOVVEERRVVIIEEWW
The debate on the issue of health has been growing over the last few decades.
Studies of the organisational models used in different health systems and analyses of
their activities, based on criteria of sustainability, efficiency and equity, are being used
today as indicators of the degree of a country’s development, as they directly affect
the population’s well-being and quality of life.
Government health policies have resulted in changes in the way national health
systems are organised and operated, and they therefore require automatic changes in
the behaviour of those involved, in both the public and private sectors. The
implementation of a system of accounts considering the specificity of health care is
justified, all in all, by the need to keep up with developments in the sector, such as the
effects of sectoral policies on the organisation and activities of all involved in both the
public and private sectors, from the point of view of providers of both health care and
funding.
1. OBJECTIVES
The main aim of the Satellite Health Accounts is to evaluate the resources available in
a country for use in the provision of healthcare services. In general, it measures total
expenditure on health care, including the different components making up a national
health system, i.e. healthcare providers, financing agents and healthcare functions.
The driving force behind the development of the Health Satellite Accounts in Portugal
was the need:
To provide statistical information to meet OECD requirements
Until now, information on the health sector in Portugal has been provided in the
National Accounts. However, due to differences in concepts, methods and
classifications, it was considered insufficient, as it did not go into enough detail
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 99 ooff 115511
regarding the variables required to meet OECD requirements. As a result, there was
an urgent need to set up an accounting system to provide information that satisfied
these requirements.
The need for updating and maintenance of the System of Health Accounts was
reinforced by recent developments at international level, the setting up of the joint
questionnaire “SHA Data Collection” involving OECD, EUROSTAT and WHO.
The main purposes of the joint questionnaire are:
- At national level: to reduce the burden in the data collection for the national
agencies.
- Internationally: to harmonize principles, concepts, methodologies as well as to
improve the availability and comparability of the health expenditure.
To use it as a tool in evaluating, analysing and deciding on health sector policies
The recent restructuring of the health sector, with fundamental changes in the National
Health Service (NHS), generated a demand for information for use in analysing and
assessing the sector and providing tools for analysing, monitoring and supporting
political decisions. In view of the need for detailed information giving a more
exhaustive picture of the health sector than the one currently available, the project
was supported by the government agencies and was given a degree of priority in the
production of health sector statistics.
2. BODIES INVOLVED
A working group of representatives of different government institutions has been set
up to implement the pilot project Health Satellite Accounts and achieve the established
goals. The bodies involved are the body responsible for financial management of NHS
(IGIF- Health Financial and Computer Management Agency), the Directorate-General
of Health (DGS), the National Statistical Institute (INE) and the Directorate-General of
Studies and Forecasts of the Ministry of Finance and Public Administration (DGEP)..

CCHHAAPPTTEERR IIII –– MMEETTHHOODDOOLLOOGGYY
In Portugal the implementation of the Health Satellite Accounts is based on the
principles, concepts, definitions and classifications contained in the OECD “System of
Health Accounts version 1.0” (SHA) manual which, in turn, is based on the United
Nations System of National Accounts (SNA-93) and its European version, the
European Accounts System 1995 (ESA1995), whose implementation is compulsory by
EU Regulation..
During the planning stage of the project, the year 2000 was established as the
benchmark year and the first year for which the account would be compiled and the
following tables have been produced (in Annexes 1 to 4), as envisaged in the SHA
manual:
Table 2: Current expenditure on health by function of care and provider
industry
Table 3: Current expenditure on health by provider industry and source of
funding
Table 4: Current expenditure on health by function of care and source of
funding
Table 5: Total expenditure on health, including health-related functions
The task of creating the Health Satellite Accounts system was organised into the
following different phases:
1. The set-up of the Health Satellite Accounts universe;
2. A three-dimensional classification of the units in the universe;
3. The compilation of data;
4. The conciliation of results and compilation of SHA Tables 2, 3, 4 and 5.
The first phase of the work consisted of defining the statistical units that comprised the
universe of the Health Satellite Accounts system. In organising the available
information, obtained from different sources, it was necessary to avoid duplicating the
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 1111 ooff 115511
reporting of units. The units were classified according to the SHA manual
classifications by providers of healthcare, financing agents and healthcare functions,
(in Annexes 5 to 7). At the end of these two phases, which provided an inventory and
a three-dimensional classification of the universe, a general file was produced
containing all the units in the inventory and providing details of the following:
Institutional sector – code and description;
Identification as financing agent, provider or both;
ICHA Classification – HF, HC, HP;
Identification of CAE;
Identification of main organisation holding the relevant information.
This was followed by the compilation of data, during which estimates were made of
spending on health care by provider and by financer and the structure of healthcare
functions were defined, making use of different sources of information.
The tasks of consolidating the results and compiling Tables 2, 3, 4 and 5 were
included in one single phase of work because they so closely relied on each other.
After consulting all the information on production and financing estimates available
from the different sources, efforts were made to establish median levels of
expenditure, production and financing and, subsequently, to allocate these by type of
healthcare function. The final results were used to complete SHA Tables 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Each of these phases of work will be described in detail, in particular the methods and
sources of information underpinning their development. To conclude this
methodological approach, it was considered essential to include in this chapter an
explanation of the main conceptual boundaries and differences between national
accounts and the Health Satellite Accounts.

1. THE INVENTORY OF THE HEALTH SATELLITE ACCOUNT
UNIVERSE
The aim of producing an inventory of the Health Satellite Accounts universe was to
organise a database containing the statistical units that were to be observed. In order
to make the universe as complete as possible, the following different sources of
information were used:
The INE Ficheiro de Unidades Estatísticas (FUE – Central Register of Statistical
Units)
INE has its own database, the FUE, in which statistical units (corporations and similar,
non-profit organisations and general government units) active in mainland Portugal
and the Autonomous Regions of the Azores and Madeira are recorded. The FUE
classifies statistical units according to the following variables: identification of units
(corporate tax number (NPC), business name, address and post code), stratification
(main activity according to the CAE-Rev. 2.1, secondary activity according to the CAE-
Rev. 2.1, number of employees, turnover, the auxiliary variable of location of head
office (DT/CC/FG), legal form, institutional sector, number of local units, nomenclature
of statistical territorial units (NUTS) and characteristics and demography (telephone, fax,
e-mail, international trade, share capital, % foreign capital, % state capital, % private
capital, business, address, date founded, starting date of activity, the Madeira tax free
zone, legal status grouping).
The statistical units that comprise the universe of the Health Satellite Accounts were
selected primarily by using the CAE-Rev. 2.1 criterion of main economic activity, which
is the national version of the NACE. However it was necessary to include the
statistical units that provide health care as secondary activity or activities related to
health in order to guarantee the exhaustiveness of the Satellite Accounts,
The following CAE-Rev. 2.1 classifications were considered:

The Health Satellite Accounts universe was also completed by including other units,
namely units whose main activity does not involve the provision of health care but
includes small units that provide healthcare services for employees and their
households.
The IGIF provided lists of bodies financing NHS institutions, taken from the
Sistema de Gestão de Doentes Hospitalares (SONHO- the Portuguese Hospital
Patient Management System) and the Sistema de Informação para as Unidades
de Saúde (SINUS – the Portuguese Information System for Healthcare Units) and
from non-profit institutions serving households (NPISHs) financed.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 1155 ooff 115511
Through the DGS it was possible to access lists of all the entities that operated
under agreements with the NHS, including private social solidarity institutions
(IPSS) and other private in-patient or out-patient establishments and licensed
healthcare establishments with or without agreements with the NHS.
According to the definition contained in the DGS publication “Informação geral -
elementos estatísticos Saúde / 2000” ("General Information – Health Statistics /
2000"), the entities operating under agreements/conventions consisted of private
healthcare providers who had signed agreement contracts with the Ministry of
Health or Regional Health Government (RHAs) with the aim of providing health
care jointly with the NHS as part of the national network of healthcare providers.
The INE has full lists covering the general government universe, broken down into
its respective sub-sectors of Central, Regional and Local Government.
The Comissão Nacional de Luta contra a Sida (CNLSida – the National Committee
for the Fight Against AIDS) provided a list of the institutions that were financed.
The definition of the Health Satellite Accounts universe was therefore the result of a
combination of these lists of units or, in other words, the collation of these sources of
information, using the CAE, the institutional sector classification, and the NPC in order
to prevent duplicating reporting of the units, with the aim of creating a full inventory.
During the initial phase of the work it was not possible to collate the information from
the DGS with that of the FUE due to the fact that units were not identified by NPC
within the DGS. This difficulty was, however, overcome as the work progressed.
The universe of SHA is updated every year with the integration of units that start their
activity in each year, the removal of units that cease activity, the update of the
classification of the activity code as main, secondary and related, the change in the
institutional sector classification and eventual changes in Tax Number.

2. THE THREE-DIMENSIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF THE HEALTH
SATELLITE ACCOUNTS UNIVERSE
The OECD SHA manual recommends classifying units in accordance with the
classification proposed in the International Classification for Health Accounts (ICHA)
(Annexes 5 to 7).
The ICHA envisages a three-dimensional approach to establish:
Healthcare service provider industries (ICHA-HP);
Financing Agents of healthcare (ICHA-HF);
Healthcare by function (ICHA-HC).
This three-dimensional classification is justified by the complexity of national health
systems and by the need to classify the different elements they encompass.
According to the SHA manual (§ 1.6): The provision of health care and its funding is a
complex multi-dimensional process. The set of tables in the SHA addresses three
basic questions:
Where does the money come from? (financing agents)
Where does the money go? (providers of services and goods)
What kinds of services are performed and what types of goods are
purchased? (functions of health care)
The classification of the units in the Health Satellite Accounts universe is based on the
principles and guidelines contained in the OECD SHA manual.

2.1- Classification of units by healthcare provider (ICHA-HP)
In accordance with the system used in the OECD SHA manual for classifying units in
the Health Satellite Accounts universe by healthcare provider (ICHA-HP), the following
principles have been taken into consideration:
The basic criteria for classifying healthcare providers by industry (ICHA-HP) will be
the main activity of the establishments (§ 4.3).
The ICHA-HP provider classification comprises both producers of health care as
main activity (for example, hospitals and doctors' offices) and also those that
provide healthcare as a secondary activity. Secondary producers provide
healthcare services in addition to their main activity, as a secondary activity.
Examples are residential care units which provide mainly social services, such as
asylums, in combination with healthcare services such as long-term nursing care
or psychiatric care (§ 4.5).
Producers of intermediate products used in health care are not considered ICHA-
HP providers of health care (§ 4.6). Similarly, services intended for the
intermediate consumption of the providers should be excluded. In particular, the
production of self-employed healthcare providers offering services in a hospital
must be excluded, since this constitutes an intermediate form of production that
has already been accounted for in the production of the hospital itself. The
justification for this procedure is based on the fact that the intention is to calculate
the production intended for final use.
The methodology for classifying the units in the universe by healthcare provider was
based on attributing a healthcare provider code (ICHA-HP) to the main activity to each
unit classified with a code according to the CAE-Rev. 2.1.
According to the CAE-Rev. 2.1 classification of principal activity, the following
attribution criteria were considered:

Notes on the classification of service providers:
CAE 52320 covers the retail sale of medical and orthopaedic goods, namely
artificial limbs and vehicles for the disabled. The SHA provider nomenclature
distinguishes between suppliers of hearing aids and suppliers of other medical
equipment. In certain situations it was not possible to distinguish between the two
different types of suppliers, since both products could be supplied by the same
unit. When it was not possible to distinguish between them, it was decided to
classify them all under HP4.2 - HP4.9;
The retail sale of optical glasses and other vision products is undertaken by the
units whose main activity is classified under CAE 52482, which also includes
suppliers of photographic and cinematographic equipment and precision
instruments. When a unit was not described as an “oculist”, as was the case with
many privately owned companies, there were additional difficulties with
classification;
It was assumed that, in addition to offering in-patient care, the principal activity of
clinics classified as in-patient (CAE 85110) was the provision of out-patient
services classified under HP.3.4.5.;
In dealing with the units registered under the name of the owner or medical
associations where no function was specified, which were classified under CAE
85110 and 85120, it was assumed that these were private medical offices and they
were therefore classified under HP.3.1;

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 2233 ooff 115511
CAE 85130 includes medical dentistry and odontology activities. The SHA
nomenclature recommends distinguishing between the practice of medical
dentistry and odontology, which at times proved impossible considering the way in
which production is organised in these types of units. In Portugal, the majority of
private offices which include dentists also frequently include specialists in
stomatology, maxilo-facial surgery, medical dentists and odontologists. In practice,
it became almost impossible to identify which of these specialists operated within
any particular unit.
2.2- Classification of financing agents of healthca re (ICHA-HF)
The OECD SHA manual establishes the criteria for classifying units in the Health
Satellite Accounts System by financing agent (ICHA-HF) as follows:
The financing classification of the ICHA establishes a total separation between
spending on health care by public and private financing units. This classification is
derived from the central SNA framework for institutional sectors of the economy (§
6.7).
The methodology for classifying the units which finance the healthcare system takes
into account the divisions between the institutional sectors established by the SNA
(Annexe 8) using the ICHA-HF nomenclature proposed in the SHA.
The criteria used to classify the units included in each level of the ICHA-HF
nomenclature are as follows:
HF.1 – General Government
General government units which finance the healthcare system comprise all units
which finance expenditure on healthcare, i.e. bodies which finance healthcare services
either as providers (production) or through transfers (financers). Item HF.1 covers the
following categories:
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 2244 ooff 115511
HF.1.1 – General government excluding social security funds;
HF.1.1.1 – NHS;
HF.1.1.2 – Public health sub-systems;
HF.1.1.3 – Other government bodies.
HF.1.2 – Social security funds
Identifying the entities classified under HF.1 involved an analysis of the following types
of expenditure, categorised according to the nature of the expenditure using a
correspondence table between the items of the Reports and financial statements of
the general government sector units and ESA95 transactions for purposes of National
Accounts:
- Purchase of goods and services – life insurance and other funding except
social security funds that are compulsory;
- Purchase of goods and services – pension funding and supplementary
occupational schemes;
- Purchase of goods and services – Non-life insurance;
- Purchase of goods and services – Human health services;
- Social benefits, except social transfers in kind – Work-related accidents;
- Social benefits, except social transfers in kind – Other social benefits;
- Social transfers in kind – Healthcare expenses;
- Social transfers in kind – Other transfers in kind;
After these operations had been selected, the units were analysed in relation to
alternative sources of information such as Ministry of Health reports, monetary
accounts and sources.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 2255 ooff 115511
Notes on the classification of financing units within level HF.1.1:
HF.1.1.1 – NHS: includes a wide range of institutions dependent on the Ministry of
Health in its dual role of provider and financer of the healthcare services it produces,
whilst also funding the production of other providers through contracts and
agreements.
HF.1.1.2 – Public social insurance subsystems in health: managed by government
bodies which bear the healthcare expenses of restricted population groups, normally
their own employees. There are two kinds of public social insurance subsystems:
- Public social insurance subsystems in health which only finance expenditure on
health care, bearing part of the cost of healthcare services in accordance with
particular schemes and systems. They make use of a network of healthcare providers
with whom they have established agreements and conventions. They are financed
mainly by state transfers and contributions from participating organisations and also,
partly, by contributions from beneficiaries;
- Public social insurance subsystems in health which fund and provide healthcare
services, acting as the financers of healthcare services in accordance with particular
schemes and systems and also as provider units. Their funding consists of
expenditure on healthcare services provided either by the units themselves or by
private units with whom they may or may not have agreements and conventions.
Access is restricted to beneficiaries, although in some cases other users may take
advantage of the services on condition that they pay the full cost. They are normally
financed by the employers of the beneficiaries and also partly by contributions from
the latter.
HF.1.1.3 – Other government institutions: includes all other government institutions
which finance healthcare expenditure and other producers and financers of
government healthcare services which are not part of the NHS and public subsystems
of social insurance in health. The negative tax (-D51) corresponding to the income tax

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 2266 ooff 115511
deductions of health expenditure that is legally allowed to deduct by tax payers are
recorded under this category of financing agent.
HF.2 – The private sector
The private entities which finance the healthcare system were classified according to
SHA nomenclature and, in general terms, consist of the following:
HF.2.1 – Private social insurance subsystems – Private health subsystems
HF.2.2 – Private insurance enterprises (other than social insurance)
HF.2.3 – Private household out-of-pocket expenditure
HF.2.4 – NPISH (other than private social insurance)
HF.2.5 – Corporations (other than health insurance)
Notes on the classification of financing units within level HF.2:
HF. 2.1 – Private health subsystems: are managed by private entities which support
the healthcare expenditure of a restricted group of people, generally their employees.
They are usually financed by the employer and, to a lesser extent, the employees,
although the latter may not pay any contributions to the system, or are partly
responsible for healthcare expenditure in accordance with the particular regulations
established for these kinds of schemes. Their funding consists of expenditure on
healthcare services provided either by the units themselves or by private units with
whom they may or may not have agreements and conventions. The existing
subsystems which finance and provide health care offer their beneficiaries exclusive
access to the services of the providers and also offer access to other clients if they
pay the full cost of the service.
HF.2.2 – Private insurance enterprises (other than social insurance): a group of
insurance companies who offer health insurance policies and cover expenditure on
health care for the beneficiaries of health insurance policies, whether these are held
collectively by an employer for the benefit of their employees or are held individually.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 2277 ooff 115511
HF.2.3 – Private household out-of-pocket expenditur e: the universe containing all
resident households who bear the cost of healthcare services directly without
reimbursement from any social insurance scheme.
HF.2.4 – NPISHs: all NPISHs which finance their healthcare industry.
HF.2.5 – Corporations (other than health insurance) : covers the group of
companies who finance their employees' health care or who finance the production of
small healthcare units for their own use with cost-free restricted access.
HF.3 – Rest of the world
Any funding of the National Health System by foreign entities (the rest of the world)
was not included. The SHA (§ 5.3) does not include the export of healthcare services
provided by domestic providers to foreigners but includes imports of healthcare
services. Conceptually, it is considered that funding supplied by the rest of the world
only occurs through the export of services and that payment for health care supplied
by national providers to foreign patients is outside the scope of the SHA.
2.3- The functional classification of health care ( ICHA-HC)
The functional classification of health care supplied by each provider unit conforms to
the guidelines contained in the SHA manual, taking the following into account:
The items in the functional classification refer to products/services and therefore to
the functional structure of output of the healthcare system. This should not be
confused with functions reported in the cost structure of providers or in the input
structure of services (means of production) involved in medical treatment
complexes (§ 3.25).
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 2288 ooff 115511
The statistical unit in functional distribution within the SHA is the specific,
functionally defined output of healthcare industries for final use (§ 3.26).
If a medical procedure involves different functions, the function representing the
main purpose of the procedure will be classified. The other functions involved in
the procedure will not be classified individually, since they will be considered inputs
(means of production), not final products. For example, any pharmaceuticals
consumed during the course of a treatment such as surgery, are considered inputs
(means of production) to the service "surgery" and should be classified under the
appropriate heading and not under ICHA-HC.5.1 “Pharmaceuticals and other non-
medical durables”.
In the initial phase, a very general functional classification was produced, represented
by the first digit of the nomenclature. Later, as the project developed, the functional
classification resulted from the direct attribution and application of structures dividing
the total estimated expenditure amounts by service provider whenever it was not
possible to categorise them directly. The methodology behind the division of
healthcare expenditure by service provider type will be discussed in the section
describing the compilation of data.

3. COMPILATION OF DATA
3.1 - Basic concepts
The task of compiling the data was based on the fundamental SHA definition (Chapter
5) for measuring healthcare expenditure and estimating national totals:
Total expenditure on health: measures the final use of resident units of healthcare
goods and services + gross capital formation in healthcare provider industries
(institutions where health care is the predominant activity).
As stated in §5.2 of the SHA manual, the abovementioned definition means that "total
expenditure on health care measures the economic resources spent by a country on
the functions HC.1 to HC.7 on healthcare services and goods, including administration
and insurance plus gross capital formation...". It thus measures the economic
resources available for a country to use on the functions of healthcare goods and
services.
Consequently the methodology used in compiling the data is based on establishing:
Expenditure on healthcare goods and services
(=)
Goods and services produced for health (available for final use)
It is important to distinguish between:
- Current expenditure on health – which is included in the concept of total
gross domestic expenditure. This does not include the export of healthcare
services (provided by domestic providers to foreigners) but does include
imports (expenditure on health care abroad by tourists and others (§5.3));
- Gross capital formation in healthcare industries (which adds to the stock of
resources of the healthcare system and lasts for more than a standard
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt

involved in the production of health services (§5.2).

The production boundary of healthcare services
The production boundary for healthcare services is similar to the one stipulated in the
SNA, with two exceptions:
Occupational health care should be recorded separately and included in the
national totals for healthcare spending. In the National Accounts system it is
normally considered an ancillary service and therefore is not usually accounted for
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 3311 ooff 115511
separately or, in other words, the expenditure is distributed across the primary and
secondary activities.
The sum which is recorded corresponds to the sum of the expenditure incurred by
corporations, general government and non-profit organisations in the provision of
occupational health care.
It includes:
- Surveillance of employee health – routine medical check-ups;
- Therapeutic care (including emergency healthcare services on or off business
premises).
It does not include remuneration in kind of health services and goods which do not
constitute intermediate consumption but rather actual final household consumption.
Expenditure on occupational health care may be approximately estimated as the
average cost of each type of medical treatment involved.
Transfers in cash paid to households for the household provision of care for sick or
infirm members of the family unit are considered household healthcare production,
measured by the value of the transfers. In national accounting practice, this
amount is considered only as a social transfer payment granted to households.
The own-account production of these personal services is not recorded in National
Accounts but must be recorded in the SHA, corresponding to social transfer
payments granted to households with the aim of compensating them for the
services they provide for the sick, infirm and elderly.
These payments are considered paid household "production". The element
corresponding to care given to family members should be recorded under final
consumption expenditure (final use) on health care and not under transfer
payments. The corresponding item should be shown separately in health accounts.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 3322 ooff 115511
Health care as part of the informal sector
The production of healthcare services involving significant sums which aims to avoid
additional payments or evade taxes constitutes part of the informal economy and it is
therefore necessary to estimate and include this amount.
However, amounts corresponding to the illegal provision of healthcare services by
unlicensed professionals and the prescribing of drugs for illegal purposes (e.g. sport,
body building or drug addiction) should not be taken into consideration. Although they
are included in the SNA, they should be excluded from the SHA.
The treatment of subsidies and other transfers to provider industries
Payments to market producers by governments with the aim of influencing supply are
considered subsidies. However, this does not include payments by governments to
market producers which aim to offer total or partial financing of the purchase of goods
or services by households on the basis of risk or social need (such as health, for
example), whether within the social security system or outside it. These payments
must be classified as welfare benefits in kind (D.631).
General payments which governments make to non-market producer NPISHs are
usually categorised as transfers. However, they may assume the characteristics of
welfare benefits in kind (D.631) if they fulfil the requirements for this procedure, in
which case the NPI is probably producing market services.
The measurement of output: market and non-market production
The SHA (§5.21) recommends that the SNA principles for measuring the output of
healthcare services are followed. The SNA concepts of output and intermediate
consumption are applied analogously in calculating national expenditure on health in
the SHA. Expenditure on healthcare services provided by non-market producers to
households free of charge or at prices that cover only part of their production costs
may be underestimated in existing National Health Accounts. This separation of output
into market and non-market output is used in health accounting only as a technical
concept for valuing output of healthcare services correctly in monetary terms. It is not
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 3333 ooff 115511
shown as a separate item in the standard tables proposed for the SHA. For the
internal estimation process, separate accounts for non-market and for market
production will be an essential tool.
Time of recording and the accrual principal
Cash accounting, which is still applied in health accounts in some countries, records
only cash payments and records them at the time that these payments occur. It is now
widely recognised that recording on a cash basis can lead to a distorted picture (…)
(§5.35). The SHA recommends for these reasons that monetary flows should be
recorded on an accrual basis according to the following SNA definition:
“Accrual accounting records flows at the time economic value is created, transformed,
exchanged, transferred or extinguished. This means that flows which imply a change
of ownership are entered when ownership passes, services are recorded when
provided, output at the same time that products are created and intermediate
consumption when materials and supplies are being used” (§5.36).
Gross capital formation in healthcare provider industries
For the recording of gross capital formation, the SHA (§5.36) recommends that the
retail sale of medical goods should be regarded as a support activity in health care
and will therefore not be counted under the total gross capital formation of healthcare
providers.
The fundamental definition (§5.37) is:
Total gross capital formation in healthcare industries = Sum of gross capital formation
in the institutional units listed under the ICHA-HP classification items HP.1 to HP.3,
HP.5 and HP.6, where health care is the predominant activity.

Healthcare expenditure by sources of funding
Basically, §6.8 of the SHA establishes that healthcare financing can be recorded
from two different perspectives:
In National Health Accounts, financing by direct payment (out-of-pocket or third-
party payment) is usually treated as a breakdown of expenditure on health into
the complex range of third-party-payment arrangements plus direct payments by
households and other direct funding;
Financing considered as the balance of own resources used by each sector to
finance health care – in this kind of analysis the financing sources of the
intermediary financing agents (social security, private social and other forms of
insurance, NPISHs) are traced back to their origins. In addition, transfers such as
inter-governmental transfers, tax deductions, subsidies to providers and financing
by the rest of the world are included to complete the picture.

3.2 - Estimating healthcare expenditure by healthca re provider
The main methodological principle used in the Health Satellite Accounts was the
identification of the concept of production with expenditure on healthcare goods and
services.
In order to establish a method for estimating healthcare expenditure that was
suitable for each type of provider it was first considered necessary to classify the
units according to their institutional character, by type of provider / producer.
To define the provider / producer type and sector for private NPIs the criterion of
50% was used (Annex 12):
If more than 50% of production costs were covered by sales, the institutional unit
was considered a market producer and was classified in the non-financial and
financial corporations sectors;
If sales covered less than 50% of production costs, the institutional unit was
considered a non-market producer and was classified in the NPISHs sector.
The 50% criterion was used for most of the units in the universe to determine the
type of producer and to apply the respective algorithm. This criterion was applied to
all producers subjected to the market/non-market analysis, including public
producers and NPIs.
However, homogenous groups of provider units emerged whose specific activities
implied that their respective production had to be estimated using a different
methodology. This was the case, for example, with estimates for the production of
sole proprietors, self-employed workers and occupational healthcare establishments.
All the units within the universe of providers belonging to the government and the
NPIs were analysed individually according to their status as market or non-market
producers.

Households as providers of home health care to family members were included with
the boundaries of healthcare service production as established in the SHA manual.
In the case of Portugal, this production was included in the results of the Health
Satellite Accounts and it was evaluated by using the amounts of social transfers
granted by the Social Security to households with this purpose.
The provider / producer groups were subsequently identified and each one was
attributed an algorithm for the different estimated expenditure / production.
In general, the different sources of information provided the necessary data for
estimates of the production of healthcare providers to be made.
Algorithms for estimating expenditure / healthcare production
Market producers
Market production represents that which is sold or is destined to be sold on the
market (§3.17-EAS95), comprising (§3.18-EAS95):
- Products sold at economically significant prices;
- Products subject to direct trade;
- Products used for payment in kind;
- Products supplied by one local unit of economic activity to another within the same
institutional unit, to be used for intermediate or final consumption;
- Products added to supplement existing products or work in progress.
Market producers include providers organised into companies or the market
activities of NPIs.
In general, the production of market producers is measured by the sale of healthcare
goods and services using the algorithm for attributing sources presented in Annexe
13, namely:

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 3399 ooff 115511
Healthcare market production (PM) = ∑ Sales in Health = ∑ Provision of services in
Health
Given that:
Market sales = Sales of market production;
In accordance with the EAS95 agreement, market producers may not supply any
other non-market products.
Note that for certain provider groups:
Providers HP.4.2 to HP.4.9 (All other sales of medical goods):
The value of HP.4.2 to HP.4.9 production was the result of splitting the final
household consumption of items coded NPCN1 331 (Medical, surgical and
orthopaedic equipment and parts) and 334 (Optical, photographic and
cinematographic equipment), in accordance with the production structure supplied
by the Inquérito Anual à Produção Industrial (IAPI - Annual Survey on Industrial
Production) for these products.
Production = Part of the value of final household consumption of products NPCN
331 and NPCN 334 products = (%) IAPI Production structure NPCN 331 X Final
household consumption of NPCN 331 + (%) IAPI Production structure NPCN 334 X
Final household consumption of NPCN 334 + Government and NPISH social
benefits in kind paid for these products
Providers HP.4.1 (Dispensing chemists):
Production = Value of medicines sold by dispensing chemists (out-patient),
excluding hospital dispensing chemists, valued at acquisition prices.

Providers HP.6.4 Other private insurance: Only health policies were considered.
Insurance production (health) = Total premiums earned net of reinsurance (1) +
Income from investment of the provisions (2) – claims due, net of reinsurance (3) –
Changes in the other technical provisions – provisions with for with-profits insurance
– variation in provision for deviations in costs of claims
(1) Total premiums earned = Gross premiums issued – reinsurance premiums
issued +/- change in provisions for premiums not purchased +/- variation in
provisions for premiums not purchased, reinsurance
(2) Income from investment of the provisions = income from capital + income from
other investments + Income from investment of the provisions of reinsurance + other
technical provisions (excluding gains realised +unrealised capital gains)
(3) The cost of managing claims should be deducted, although this figure is not
available by insurance branch, only by total. Therefore it was assumed that the
proportion of the imputed cost in cost of managing claims, in the Health branch is the
same for the total insurance total branches. In average it corresponds to 4%. The
new accounting plan for the costs in the insurance companies is understudy and it
will be used as soon as it will be implemented.
Non-market producers
Non-market production (§3.17-EAS95) covers production which is supplied free of
charge or at prices which are not economically significant.
The non-market production of health care must be assessed by the total production
costs, i.e.:
Non-market production of health care (PNM) = Intermediate Consumption (P.2) +
Compensation of Employees (D.1) + Consumption of Fixed Capital (K.1) + Other
taxes on production (D.29) – Other production subsidies (D.39) – Non-health Sales

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 4411 ooff 115511
Given that:
Non-market sales (Vnm) = sales of non-market production or, in other words,
payments intended to partly finance the costs of non-market production. In
relation to health care, for example, health fees would be considered under this
category and tuition fees would be considered in relation to schools;
Secondary non-health market sales (Vm) should be excluded:
PNM = [D1 + P2 + K1 + D29 – D39] - Vm
Example: processing the income of a state hospital:
- health fees are considered non-market sales (Vnm);
- The potential income from a canteen is considered non-health market
sales (referring to a product that is classified under hospital activity
(Vm)).
Non-market producers may, however, supply market production and production
for their own final use as a secondary activity. This market production must be
determined by applying the 50% criteria to each product. However, for the
purposes of a healthcare account, it is only important to register health output,
including sales related to health care.
Providers organised as self-employed and own-accoun t workers
The production of healthcare providers organised as self-employed and own-
account workers was estimated on the basis of observations on income tax (IRS)
and the registration of individual business activity.
By analysing both the supply and demand for this work it was possible to estimate a
figure for the work representing “additional employment” and corresponding to self-
employed / own-account workers and undeclared work. “Additional employment”
includes employment identified through statements of income presented for tax
purposes and the informal labour, which could not be calculated due to tax evasion.
In order to calculate production, an average income was subsequently estimated
and “additional employment” was converted into volume of work.
Production = Volume of “additional work” X Average income

Occupational healthcare establishments
These include small medical units based within institutions, particularly private and
local government institutions and other public organisations and public social
insurance systems (GNR, PSP, etc.) which aim to provide healthcare services to
restricted groups, generally employees and their households. The Defence and
prison hospitals were excluded, since their production was estimated using the
algorithm for non-market units, and also the providers included in private social
insurance systems.
For this type of establishment, only physical data relating to the type of medical care
provided exist. Therefore, in order to provide output it was necessary to multiply the
number of medical cases, by type of medical care, by the estimated average unit
cost for a similar type of medical care, i.e.:
Production = average unit cost of production by type of medical care (X) number of
medical cases by type of medical care
For some medical procedures the average unit cost of production had been
estimated and made available by the IGIF, using estimates calculated on the basis
of average unit costs for the same types of procedures in similar healthcare
establishments. Where information was not available, Decree-Law nº 132/2003:
Regulamento das Tabelas de Preços das Instituições e Serviços Integrados no SNS
(Regulation for Prices for NHS Institutions and Services) was used.
Fire brigade activity within the context of health care
Within the context of health care, fire brigade activity mainly includes the transport of
patients in ambulances, rescue and first aid and some medical and nursing
procedures. Their output was estimated through the current transfers made by INEM
(The National Institute of Medical Emergency) to these units and also through the
eventual amounts paid by the National Health Service declared under subcontracts.
The transfers made by INEM are intended to be the full payment of the respective
service rendered by these units.

Estimating the production of the administration of private social insurance
subsystems (HP.6.4)
The Portugal Telecom – Associação de Cuidados de Saúde (PT–ACS– Healthcare
Association) and the Union of Bank Employees of North, Centre and South Regions
and the Islands – SAMS – Medical Social Assistance Services (SAMS-Serviços de
Assistência Médico-Social), both private social insurance subsystems in health, are
providers of healthcare services and simultaneously the administrators of the
subsystems they represent. It was therefore necessary to estimate the production
corresponding to administrative expenditure, known as administrative production.
In the case of the PT–ACS, the estimate for administrative production was derived
from the difference between the estimated total value of the services provided and
the value of welfare benefits in kind and the estimated production of healthcare
services, as determined by the market production algorithm.
In relation to the SAMS- Norte, Centro and Sul Regions and the Islands scheme
(sub-system intended for the workers of the banking system), the production of
administrative services was the result of the difference between the total value of the
funding of the different bodies in the form of provision of services, sales and
contributions and the value obtained from welfare benefits in kind and the estimated
production of healthcare services, which was determined by the non-market
production algorithm.
Estimating the production of Hospitals-Enterprise ( HP1.1)
In December 2002, the Portuguese Government changed the legal status of 31
public hospital of the NHS into corporations with limited liability, under the
restructuring plan of the Health sector in Portugal. Later on, the legal status was
changed to a new recently created for public units designated EPE (Entrepreneurial
Public Entity). Although these hospitals no longer are included in the Administrative
Public Sector, they are still part of the NHS.
Subsequently to the change of the legal status of the hospitals that were designated
as Hospitals-Enterprise, it was necessary to analyse each of these units that are
public producers in terms of its nature whether it is market or non-market. This is an
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 4444 ooff 115511
analysis that must be done to allocate the unit to an institutional sector in the
National Accounts. In terms of health Accounts this analysis is important in the
extent that will condition the evaluation of its output.
As a result of the analysis it was concluded that all the Hospitals-Enterprise are
market producers and therefore their output is measured by the sum of the sales of
services in health.
It is important to stress that there is no change in the composition of the universe of
providers along the series because, on one hand these units are still providers in
HP1 and, on the other, they are still part of the NHS. Nevertheless, since 2003, the
output of these hospitals is evaluated by the sales and not by its cost of production,
as it happened before.
Estimating the production of the households as prov iders of health home
care
Presently the only available data to estimate the output of the households as
providers of home care (personal care) consists in the amount of transfers granted
by the Social Security. These amounts are granted to households that take care of
their relatives that are sick, disabled, elderly people that are dependants and
handicapped people. The data that are considered as output are supplied directly by
the Ministry of Social Security. Nevertheless there is a part of the imputed output
that is not recorded in virtue of the eligibility criteria for granting these transfers
associated to what is conceptually proposed in SHA.
Main sources of information
The Structural Business Survey (SBS)
The SBS was one of the sources of information used to estimate the production of
market producers organised as corporations. In order to select the units surveyed by
the SBS included in the universe, this information was cross-checked with NPC
criteria.
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 4455 ooff 115511
According to methodology for the extrapolation of the SBS values used in the
National Accounts, the universe of the statistical units is stratified according to
criteria of sector (corporations and households) of National Accounts, number of
employees, business amount, geographic location and economic activity. When
crosschecking the units included in the universe of the National Accounts with the
units included in the sample of the SBS, for each stratus, extrapolation coefficients
are calculated in function of the number of employees. The extrapolated figures refer
to information collected in the common module of the survey. The estimation of the
output for those units result from the application of the algorithm applied during
appropriation of the sources (annex 7).
The application of a direct method of correspondence between the SHA universe,
classified according to the classification of providers, and the units collected in the
sample of the SBS and further appropriation of the extrapolated results of SBS, by
provider, show for the years under study, a great inconsistency and change in the
results for estimates of output by health care provider (initial extrapolated values X0X0X0X0
by health care provider). Although the estimates for total output are representative
for total national, at least for activities whose main activity is health services, that is,
CAE’s 851, there are big distortions at the level of representativeness by health care
provider.
In order to estimate the output in the Health Accounts it was necessary to carry out
additional work in the re-calculation of extrapolation coefficients (Coef nps 1) to
guarantee the maximum representativity, at the level of the classification by health
care provider. By keeping the stratification of the universe of the National Accounts
and the classification at the level of provider, new extrapolators (Coef nps 1) and
new extrapolated figures for output X1X1X1X1 were calculated, according to the following
formula:
Extrapolated figuresX1X1X1X1 = Initial extrapolated figures X0X0X0X0 X Coef nps 1 Coef nps 0
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 4466 ooff 115511
By applying this new method it was possible to obtain new estimates for the output
representative at the level of the classification of health care provider. However there
are still some limitations and a lot of improvement need to be done.
At inception the definition of the sample respects criteria at the level of the
representativeness of the several variables of stratus previously defined and not at
the level of the classification of health care provider. As a consequence it results
that, for each stratus, some providers are not represented in the sample of the SBS.
It was decided to correct the extrapolated figuresX1X1X1X1 for the producers recorded under
CAE 851 by assuming that the maximum limit for the estimate of the production that
should be considered, for each stratus, would be the estimated value resulting from
the initial extrapolated coefficient (Initial extrapolated figures X0X0X0X0). The difference
between the estimated production X0 X0 X0 X0 ---- X1X1X1X1, was directly imputed to the providers that
are not represented in the sample, based on the structure of the business amount.
It was considered as final estimated production, the extrapolated figures X1X1X1X1,,,, for the
producers classified in other CAE with a secondary activity in health care.
In this case no correction in order to include the providers that are not represented in
the sample of the SBS was made. This is to avoid the overestimation of the
production through the inclusion of the output of statistical units outside SHA.
This situation occurred every time that any unit that was representative in the SHA
universe, for each stratus, at the level of the classification of providers was not
inquired. The production of these units was not considered in the extrapolated
figures X1X1X1X1.
Generally, the above-mentioned problems are more frequent for the units of lesser
dimension and/or and providing health care as secondary activity. This is because,
for the enterprises of higher dimension (equal or greater than 100 workers) the
exhaustiveness is guaranteed in the survey.
The units surveyed, obtained in specific annexes, namely Annexe N – Health,
Annexe M – Education (Higher Education) and Annexe G – Commerce, were not
extrapolated but considered in the analysis of these units, namely to obtain the
structures of production, by functions of health care..

Annual financial statements
The information supplied by annual financial statements was analysed on an
individual basis for each unit and, depending on whether the producer type was
classified as market or non-market, the appropriate production algorithm was
applied. The annual financial statements supplied information on:
- private social insurance subsystems, in the case of the SAMS and the PT-ACS;
- public social insurance subsystems in health, such as ADSE;
- market productive units organised as corporations that provide healthcare
services as a secondary activity;
- non-market productive units in the government
Information supplied by the IGIF
The IGIF compiles the NHS Annual Accounts which contain information on all the
provider units within the NHS (e.g. profit and loss statements and their breakdown).
In addition, the existing IGIF database provides detailed information on the different
cost account items in the profit and loss statement for all NHS provider units such as

Regional Health Administrations (RHAs-managers and providers of health multi-
centres)), Hospitals (central, specialised, district level one and the Portuguese
Institute of Oncology), Psychiatric Services, Other Autonomous Services and
Educational Services. The available information enables data to be obtained by
function, since it includes highly detailed unitary data classified by medical
procedure.
Through the IGIF it is possible to obtain, for example, information on the average
unit cost of general out-patient care, specialist appointments (Gynaecology /
Obstetrics, Ophthalmology, Otorhinology, Paediatrics, Pneumology, Stomatology,
General and Family Medicine), Medical Analysis, Radiology / Imagiology and
Physical Medicine.
Estimates of average unit costs include expenditure on personnel, direct
consumables and other direct expenses resulting from an examination of internal
sources of information:
General out-patient care – Average overall cost in 38 district hospitals;
Specialist appointments (except family and general medicine) – Average costs of
(medium-sized) district hospitals where a cost centre exists;
General and Family Medicine appointments – Average cost of internal medicine
appointments in level-one hospitals (small district hospitals);
Analysis, Radiology and Physical Medicine – Average cost in (medium-sized) district
hospitals where a cost centre exists.
Information from income tax (IRS) and corporate tax (IRC) returns
Information originating from IRS and IRC sources is supplied anonymously and is
broken down into a five-digit code by Classification of Economic Activity (CAE). The
fact that units cannot be identified by NPC means that there are difficulties involved
in crosschecking the CAE and the provider code, as units may be wrongly classified
in terms of CAE but cannot be corrected. There may also be other problems, such
as the possibility of CAE codes corresponding to more than one provider code,
meaning that the respective provider code cannot be correctly attributed.
Nevertheless, taking these limitations into account, the sources were duly analysed.

In terms of the IRC, units were selected on the basis of the CAE codes considered in
the Health Satellite Accounts. In the case of the IRS, in addition to the CAE coding,
the IRS Classification of Economic Activity system (CIRS), which has been in force
since the year 2000, was also used (table taken from DL 442-A/88 (IRS ORIGINAL)

Survey of private social solidarity institutions (I PSSs);
This survey was the main source of information used in estimating the production of
the IPSSs.
The majority of IPSSs are involved in various activities, particularly in relation to the
provision of healthcare services and social work with households, the elderly,
invalids, the poor and excluded social groups such as delinquents and drug addicts.
Due to the specific nature of the work of these institutions, explained by their multiple
functions and main areas of interest, and bearing in mind the detailed information
available in the IPSS survey, it was necessary to adopt certain procedures to avoid
over-assessing their production. In practice, in all the phases involved in processing
the information contained in the survey, cross-references were made between the
functions and main areas of interest and the types of activity/providers, since these
functions and areas of interest represented the economic activities exercised by the
units. Thus, in the survey, for example, a unit with a hospital and an old people's
home corresponded to an illness with its respective main area (the hospital) and to
old age with a day centre as its main area, to Home care, etc. It was therefore
possible to classify different establishments (provider codes) on the basis of the
different functions and main area contained within each unit.
In the initial phase it was necessary to determine the common units in the universe
and survey and select the functions and main areas that could be evaluated in terms
of the Health Satellite Accounts, as follows:

Although each institution was initially classified in general terms as a provider unit,
due to the specific nature of the activities involved it was decided to separate the
different main areas of each institution and individually re-classify them by provider
type.
Subsequently, the producer type was classified in detail by function and main area
and the appropriate production algorithm applied, depending on whether market or
non-market production was involved.
Some IPSSs involved in social work – with the elderly, in homes for the elderly and
residential homes – presented healthcare costs.
It could be seen that, in most cases, the healthcare costs for these institutions were
provided either to the NHS or to private sector providers, meaning that production
had already been accounted for. However, in cases where institutions possessed
healthcare units for the elderly there were problems in estimating expenditure, due

The report and financial statement of the Social Security supply directly monetary
data concerning the social transfers granted to households that provide home care
to their relatives and family that require temporary health care or long-term care.
Decree Law nº 132/2003 - Regulations for Prices for NHS Institutions and
Services
Whenever it was impossible to obtain an estimate of the average unit costs of
medical procedures, the following codes from the Decree-Law nº 132/2003 were
consulted:
Electrocardiograms – Code 40301
Electro-encephalogram – Code 63011
Dental healthcare procedures – Extractions – Code 37505
Dental healthcare procedures – Fillings – Code 37010
Injections, average weighted – Code 99070+99080+99090
Dressings and other – Code 99150
Annexe 15 presents some of the algorithms used to calculate healthcare
expenditure and the respective sources of information, identified by code and
provider nomenclature.
3.3- Estimating healthcare expenditure by healthcar e financer
As previously stated, a group of entities exist which finance the healthcare system
and were classified according to the ICHA-HF nomenclature stipulated in the SHA.
In general, these financing bodies may be grouped into:
Financers of the healthcare system only;
Financers of the healthcare system and providers of health care.
With regard to units that only finance the healthcare system, the figures for the
financing of the production of the different providers are derived from the
appropriation of data supplied directly by the sources of information.
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 5555 ooff 115511
For those which are both financers and producers of healthcare services, calculating
the value of the funding includes:
An estimate of the funding of the production of a provider unit by the unit itself,
which corresponds to:
the final consumption expenditure of a non-market unit on the non-
market production of goods and services (in the case of NHS
healthcare services or, for example, the SAMS in its role as provider);
or
company expenditure on intermediate consumption on behalf of its
employees (occupational healthcare units); or
expenditure in the form of social transfers that do not constitute
provisions made by the units on behalf of their employees (medical
posts organised as non-autonomous schemes by units – e.g. military
hospitals);
The financing of production by other entities, corresponding to:
social benefits in kind, which are also partly included in the final
consumption expenditure of non-market units (such as NHS payments
to providers of private health care); and
social benefits from market producers (such as insurance payments to
hospitals);
The financing of production by households.
In situations in which the entities are healthcare providers and the sole financers of
their own production and are not supported by any other funding or financed by
other providers, it was assumed that the value of the financing was always equal to
the estimated value of the production.
In the particular case of financing through private household expenditure, when it
was impossible to obtain detailed figures from the sources of information the
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 5566 ooff 115511
balancing item or, in other words, the residual value, was considered the result of
the process of consolidation.
The financing provided by insurance companies in the form of health insurance
claims by functions of health care is only available at a reduced level of detail. An
analysis of the type of functions of health care usually covered by health insurance
policies was made. A direct allocation of the amounts of claims of health insurance
declared by health corporations was made with the available data and respective
breakdown.
Data on financing supplied by insurance corporations are available with the following
detail:
o Hospital expenditure;
o Expenditure on out-patient care;
o Medicine products;
o Dental care;
o Expenditure on childbirth services;
o Prosthetics/orthopaedic appliances;
o Others.
The income tax deductions were considered as financing of current expenditure in
health. However the Ministry of Finance only financed a total amount without any
detail that enable the direct allocation by type of provider or by function of health
care. Therefore it was necessary to use indirect methods of estimation to allocate
these expenditures by provider and by function of health care. It was considered that
that the structure of private expenditure of households was the most appropriate to
allocate these amounts, considering that this is actual expenditure made by tax
payers and reported in the tax statement.
Concerning the expenditure in health resulting from professional sickness and risk,
the Social Security also publishes, in its report and financial statement, the amounts
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 5577 ooff 115511
of financing by provider and functions of health care. In fact, Social Security is
responsible for this kind of expenditure.
In any of the situations described in Section 3.3, the same procedure was adopted
for analysing the different sources of information that provided data on financing:
Whenever the details of the information made it possible to attribute amounts of
financing by provider, in accordance with the provider nomenclature or, in other
words, to identify the provider entity intended to receive the financing;
Conversely, when information existed on the revenue of providers this was
attributed on the basis of the different sources of financing or, in other words, by
identifying the financing bodies funding a particular provider.
Main sources of information
Information from the IGIF
The main source of information for the figures for NHS financing, providing
information on the dual aspects of its role as financer and provider:
NHS financing by financing body:
Current revenue collected by health centres, hospitals (including psychiatric
hospitals) and other autonomous services from insurance companies, the
different clients of state institutions, other clients / parties liable for payment
and social insurance subsystems in health such as ADSE, the Military, para-
military personnel, SAMS, IOS-CTT, the social services and other
subsystems;
Other amounts received by different entities within the NHS via subsidies paid
by the IGIF and state entities and other entities, namely IPSSs.
NHS financing of other healthcare providers through expenditure on private
providers on the basis of contracts and agreements.
INFARMED statistics
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 5588 ooff 115511
INFARMED, as the regulatory body for the medicine products sector in Portugal,
provides information on the market structure of medicine products which enable
NHS, social insurance subsystems and healthcare user costs to be calculated.
However, it is not possible to determine the amounts paid by insurance companies
in relation to health insurance on the basis of the INFARMED information as there
are not normally any agreements between insurance companies and dispensing
chemists. In practice, this amount is included in the component corresponding to
costs borne by households.
Ministry of Defence statistical yearbook
In its statistical yearbook the Ministry of Defence publishes various types of
information on defence. In particular it provides statistical data on the healthcare
provision activities of the different branches of the Armed Forces and on sickness
insurance schemes through partnerships / alternative healthcare support systems
(ADME / ADMFA / ADMA), by type of assistance, namely:
Medicine products;
In-patient care;
Out-patient care;
Prosthesis equipment and stomatology;
Ancillary services;
Others (therapeutical, surgery, nursing care, others).
Reports and financial statements
The reports and financial statements published by various units contain specific
information on the financing of units and include:
Public social insurance subsystems in health, namely ADSE
ADSE is a public social insurance subsystem that partly finances the healthcare
expenditure of general government sector workers and is financed by transfers from
the state, contributions from employers in general government and, to a lesser
extent, contributions from beneficiaries. It establishes agreements and conventions
with healthcare providers belonging to the NHS or with other private providers such
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 5599 ooff 115511
as dispensing chemists, clinics and private hospitals. In addition, it subsidises
expenditure on health care in the case of beneficiaries resorting to health care
supplied by providers outside the NHS network and those operating under ADSE
agreements. Its annual report and financial statement provides detailed data on
healthcare expenditure on the NHS, either through agreements or on a free-access
basis, which enables financing to be attributed by provider.
Private social insurance subsystems, namely SAMS and the PT-ACS
The SAMS and PT-ACS private social insurance subsystems are both healthcare
providers and financers of their own production and that of other providers through
agreements and conventions.
The SAMS annual report and financial statement details the amounts of financing by
source of finance or, in other words, credit institutions, workers in general or special
schemes / complementarity, other users (insurance companies), the state and other
public bodies. It also provides a breakdown of the figures by type of service provided
outside the network of its own services and agreements.
The PT-ACS annual report and financial statement supplies the financing structure
for own production and the production of other healthcare providers within or outside
the network of agreements, by provider type.
For market production units organised as companies providing healthcare
services as a secondary activity, the financing amount was considered equal to
the estimated value of production. Occupational health units, for example, come
under this category.
Survey of private social solidarity institutions (I PSSs)
The survey provides detailed information on amounts received by households,
regional social security centres and other sectors.
Ministry of Finance
The Ministry of Finance has made available the total amount of health expenditure
that was considered for purposes of income tax deductions.

Report and Financial Statement of the Social Securi ty
The report and financial statement of the Social Security includes the amounts of
financing in health care expenditure under professional sickness and risks.
ISP statistical information on insurance / survey o f direct insurance
premiums, by policy and by holder
The annual report published by the ISP (the supervisory body for the insurance and
pension funds sector) supplies the direct insurance amounts paid, which are
equivalent to the amount disbursed by insurers on health insurance policies in
paying for the health care of beneficiaries, whether collective or individual policy
holders.
The results of the survey supplement the information obtained from the ISP,
enabling more detailed data to be obtained to meet the requirements of the National
Accounts.
Characteristics:
- Collection method: Sample
- Information collected from: Mainland Portugal
- Frequency of publication: Not published regularly
- Units surveyed: Companies
- Information collected by: Computer
The sources of information are presented in Annexe 16, under the classification
code for financer and provider.
3.4- Estimating healthcare expenditure by healthcar e function
(including related functions)
The shared structures provided by the various sources of information were used in
attributing values for healthcare expenditure on healthcare functions, with the
exception of related functions.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 6611 ooff 115511
Certain problems emerged in relation to functional classification and its
correspondence to the ICHA-HC codes established in the SHA, due to the fact that
the information available was very limited and not always sufficiently well broken
down.
Whenever possible, the different structures were calculated by healthcare provider
type.
Situations exist in which the function corresponds directly to the goods and services
supplied by particular providers, as in the following cases:
ICHA-HP ICHA-HC
HP.4.1 HC.5.1
HP.4.2-HP.4.9 HC.5.2
HP.5 HC.6
HP.6 (HP.6.1; 6.3; 6.4; 6.9) HC.7
HP.7 HC.6
The main sources of information used in determining the structures of
healthcare functions were:
The Structural Business Survey (SBS)
The description of healthcare provider units included in the SBS in Specific Annexe
N – Health Care supplied detailed information on the types of services provided,
which were classified under the ICHA-HC nomenclature established in the SHA
manual.
The ICHA-HC references for classification were as follows:

Information from IGIF
The IGIF supplied data on the healthcare structures of providers operating within the
NHS.
The methodology used by the IGIF to attribute NHS costs to a function classification
was as follows:
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 6644 ooff 115511
Based on the total values for consumption, supplies and external services and
expenditure on personnel contained in the “Global Financial Report of the NHS”,
which is published every year for each big group of providers (Hp1, HP3.4 and
others under the NHS), several criteria to impute to each item of expenditure at the
third or fourth level and for each were defined.
In order to do so, it was necessary to resort to other, more detailed sources of
information, such as the following:
♦ Cost accounting reports from central hospitals;
♦ Cost accounting reports from district hospitals;
♦ Cost accounting reports from level-one hospitals
♦ Report “NHS Transfers ”
♦ Costs reports for the following hospitals:
• Hospital São João, Hospital Universitário de Coimbra, Hospital Garcia da
Horta, Hospital Aveiro, Hospital Viseu, Hospital Alcobaça, Hospital Seia
♦ Costs of Hospital Magalhães de Lemos and Hospital Júlio de Matos
♦ Healthcare Statistics published by the INE for Health Centres.
Moreover for each of the items/sub-items analysed t he following procedure
was considered:
Consumption and breakdown by function:
Health Centres (HP3.4) : data in quantities supplied by INE, whenever available, on
the production of each medical procedure were converted into medical weighted
acts using the direct unit costs of level-one hospitals (previously council hospital
many times integrated in health centres).
An estimation of the unitary cost per item, by medical weighted act, multiplied by the
number of medical acts was made. For HC.6 (public health) an estimate of the
expenditure valued in terms of consumptions was made for the obligatory
vaccinations and the medical appointments carried out under public prevention
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 6655 ooff 115511
programs. These amounts were deducted to the total global costs of the out-patient
care estimates as referred in the previous paragraph
Hospitals (HP1) : Various direct cost items pertaining to the main hospital sections
were analysed, such as in-patient care, out-patient care, emergency out-patient
care, day cases of curative care and home care services, as broken-down in the
cost accounting reports of the central and district hospitals. The relative weighting of
each cost item was determined for each of the main sections, which was equivalent
to its functions.
Psychiatry (HP1) : Based on the cost of the sections of the psychiatric hospitals,, the
weight of the cost for each sub-item in each section, was estimated, These
weighters were applied as a structure to the total in each item.
Other autonomous services : There are several autonomous units and each has a
different purpose in its activity. After having analysed each unit in this group the
basic functions were defined. Then expenditure was directly attributed to each one in
terms of the functions defined.
External Services and Supplies:
There are two main different types of account with different nature:
Subcontracts that represent payments for services carried out by external
providers. Each of the sub-accounts was analysed in terms of the services
supplied (functions) by external providers. This analysis was applied to each of
the previously defined groups of services (hospitals, psychiatry, health centres
and other autonomous services). Therefore the actual amounts were allocated
directly to each function and each type of provider;
Supply of services covers the cost of services directly supported by institutions
during the exercise of their activities. In general, the same assessment was used
for all services in relation to each type of provider categorised under “Other
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 6666 ooff 115511
consumption". For other services, the real amounts corresponding to the
functional classification of each service were used.
Expenditure on employees and breakdown by function:
Efforts were made to break this account down into the main sub-items and also by
type of employee. For the headings “Wages and Salaries” and “Holidays and
Christmas Allowances” it was only possible to attribute by professional category.
Health Centres: Average weighted cost with employees were calculated and
applied to the previously estimated weighted medical acts according to the
conversion that was carried out. The total cost of employees was calculated by
function (HC1.1.1, HC1.1.3 e HC 1.1.4). In order to estimate the function HC6
(Prevention and public health), the number of employees working in this area was
taken into account and a ratio for the other “other employees” was estimated. The
average monthly unitary values paid in one of the five Regional Health
Administration was applied allowing the estimation of HC6. The difference between
the previously estimated amount for HC.1.1.3 and HC.6 was imputed to the function
HC.1.1.3 .
Hospitals : The breakdown of the cost of employees in the main sections of a group
of hospitals (the Hospital São João, Hospital Universitário de Coimbra, Hospital
Garcia da Horta, Hospital Aveiro and Hospital Viseu) was studied and the
assessment was established by function and sub-item. These weighters were
applied to the total cost.
Psychiatry : The breakdown of the cost of employees in the main sections was
studied. The criteria of the sub-items in each of the main sections, equivalent to
functions, were defined.
Other services : It was considered the actual amount of expenditure by item,
according to the initial functional classification, previously mentioned.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 6677 ooff 115511
Other costs:
This item includes the following items: other operational cost e extraordinary cost
and losses (consolidated amounts imputed to each group of service).
Regional Health Administration (RHA) : Estimation of weighted average cost and
further multiplication by weighted medical acts, by function.
Hospitals, psychiatry and other services : Application of the weighters estimated
the cost in the item “other expenditure”.
Item “miscellaneous”: The analysis of the several components of this item allowed
the direct allocation to the respective function.
The figures for expenditure on healthcare-related functions were estimated
separately and considered only by financing agent, as in Table 5. However, in some
cases a lack of detailed information made it impossible to identify some related
functions. For example, even though it is known that hospitals and universities are
involved in healthcare research and development projects, this information is not
registered separately and it was therefore not possible to attribute this as a related
function under the SHA nomenclature.
ICHA – HC.R2 – Education and training of healthcare professionals: Production was
estimated according to the market or non-market classification and using the
methodology previously described.
ICHA – HC.R1 – Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) of providers: The estimated
expenditure was derived from the appropriation of figures made available by the
sources of information and the source of financing was later attributed:

4. CONCILIATION OF RESULTS AND COMPILATION OF SHA
TABLES 2 TO 5
Producing the conciliated results with the final aim of completing SHA Tables 2 to 5
was an ongoing process involving various directly related and interdependent
phases of work:
1st phase: Determining equilibrium values of production and financing for each
provider and financing agent (Table 3);
2nd phase: Determining the healthcare function values (Table 2) by provider type;
3rd phase: Determining the financing values by healthcare function:
- grouped by mode of production (Table 4);
- Including related functions (Table 5).
As the work progressed, the results obtained in each phase enabled SHA Tables 2
to 5 to be completed. In the following sections a brief description of the tables will be
provided and the main features underpinning each of the phases of the work will be
explained.
4.1- Description of the tables
In this initial implementation phase of the pilot project Health Satellite Accounts it
was decided to complete SHA Tables 2 to 5 (in Annexes 1 to 4) as follows. The
tables describe the different dimensions of total healthcare expenditure according to
the circumstances they are intended to measure. This means that when the tables
are cross-referenced, the totals must remain identical in order to ensure consistency.
Table 2: Current expenditure on health by function of care and provider

Table 2 describes the total uses of resident units of healthcare goods and services
by function of care and provider industry, at current prices.
Rows: - Health care by function – The different provider industries that supply each
of the healthcare functions.
Columns: - Healthcare provider industry – The different healthcare functions
supplied by each provider industry.
Data needs: It is necessary to obtain data on production by provider crosschecked
with expenditure by function or, in other words, expenditure is measured in terms of
the resources available for consumption by provider, by function.
Table 3: Current expenditure on health care by prov ider industry and sources
of funding
This table describes the total uses of resident units of healthcare goods and services
by provider industry and financing agent, at current prices.
Rows: - Health care by provider industry – The different financing agents that fund,
in various ways, each provider industry.
Columns: - Financing Agents – The different units that finance each provider
industry, by financing agent.
Data needs: It is necessary to obtain two kinds of information in order to complete
the table. On the one hand, information is required on the production of each
provider group, broken-down into the ICHA-HP nomenclature. These values fill the
rows.
The columns contain the expenditure of each financing agent by healthcare provider,
by each financer.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 7733 ooff 115511
Finally, compilation of the table will consist of the reconciliation of data on resources
by provider, corresponding to production (total resources) or, alternatively, data on
expenditure by financing agent.
Table 4: Current expenditure on health by function of care and sources of
funding

healthcare functions or financing agents for each healthcare function, including
related healthcare functions.
4.2 - 1st Phase: Determining the balancing values of product ion and
financing for each provider and financing agent (Ta ble 3)
The first phase in the conciliation of results consisted in a process of calculating the
production / expenditure and financing values by type of provider and financing
agent.. It was decided to start the conciliation process by calculating the levels of
production and financing shown in Table 3, due to the availability of sources of
information and the links and correlations between its groupings and the other
tables.
The crosschecking of the figures supplied by the different sources of information on
financing and production was undertaken at the more detailed level of provider and
financing agent classification.
The analysis of sources of information was based on an assessment of how
representative and complete they were and, at the same time, the consistency of the
results was examined by crosschecking the different aspects of production and
financing. By respecting these quality criteria, a hierarchy of sources of information
was established.
For example, data supplied by the Ministry of Health (the IGIF and DGS), the
financial reports of government units, the public and private social insurance
subsystems, data on medicine products and health insurance were considered high
quality data and prioritised.
Levels of provider expenditure were established from the point of view of production
or financing, according to the quality of the information available. For some
providers, the total level was determined in terms of production, since the quality of
information was high. For others, the level was established in terms of financing
when the respective sources offered better quality information.

Relevant questions in relation to the conciliation of results in terms of provider
nomenclature:
HP.1 – Hospitals
The level of production for hospitals was established from the point of view of
production. In production estimates, preference was given to data from the SBS (in
the case of private hospitals), the IGIF (in the case of NHS hospitals), the SAMS
report and financial statement (in estimating its hospital production), the survey on
IPSSs, the reports and financial statements of healthcare institutions belonging to
the Santa Casa da Misericórdia (in the case of speciality and orthopaedic hospitals
and health centres), the reports and financial statements of the hospitals owned by
IPSL (not captured in the survey), the report and financial statement of the
Hospitals-Enterprise and the accounts of the hospitals and health centres in the
Autonomous Regions of Azores and Madeira.
In attributing values for funding, data from the IGIF prevailed in relation to funding for
NHS institutions; the financial reports for the hospitals and health centres in the
Autonomous Regions; the Ministry of Defence statistical yearbook in the values for
co-funding; the SAMS report and financial statement in the funding of the production
of its own hospital; the PT-ACS report and financial statement for co-financing of
other hospitals and the IPSSs for information on social security partnerships and
subsidies. In balancing the production and financing flows, the residual value was
attributed to NHS funding by other government bodies.
HP.2 – Nursing and residential care facilities
The production of nursing and residential care establishments was estimated from
the point of view of production, as the information on funding was considered
inadequate. Production estimates analysed the information from the SBS in the case
of private entities, the report and financial statement of SAMS to estimate production
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 7766 ooff 115511
in homes for the elderly with restricted access to retired workers, and the survey on
IPSSs to calculate the production of NPIs providing these services.
In relation to funding, the social security system, through partnerships and subsidies,
financed the NPI providing services in this area. ADSE, the public social insurance
subsystem, and SAMS, the private social insurance subsystem, jointly financed care
for the elderly. The remaining expenditure was supported directly by households.
HP.3 – Providers of ambulatory health care
The values for expenditure were determined from the point of view of production. On
the production side, priority was given to: information from the IGIF in the case of
NHS units; reports and financial statements from other government units within the
NHS, including the Autonomous Regions; the SBS in the case of private providers;
the PT-ACS and SAMS reports and financial statements; the survey of IPSSs for
NPI providers; and the production estimate for the “hidden economy” relating to the
self-employed and own-account workers who supply undeclared production,
including amounts relating to information originating from income tax returns.
In order to avoid duplicating the accounting of the production of the self-employed
and sole proprietors or, in other words, the intermediary production for other
providers, such as private offices and ancillary services, it was necessary to deduct
these amounts from the estimated production of the respective providers who were
self-employed or own-account workers. The amounts of “payments to own-account
workers” considered in the NHS, other public health care institutions, private
hospitals and other private producers were directly obtained from IGIF and reports
and financial statements and SBS, and deducted to the amount of output in HP3.
The “payments to own-account workers” accounted in providers of NPIS were not
separately available but were included in a total amount that also includes
subcontracts. Therefore the amount of “payments to own-account workers” were
estimated based on the production amount of own-account workers working in these
institutions and the estimated amount was deducted to the amount of output in HP3.
The diference between the total amount that includes also subcontracts and the
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 7777 ooff 115511
“payments to own-account workers” were considered as corresponding to
subcontracts.
The amounts concerning subcontracts of enterprises and public providers as well as
the estimated amount of subcontracts of NPIS were deducted to the output of the
respective providers to which they concern.
In relation to funding, attempts were made to achieve a partial balance between the
production and financing of the providers grouped under HP.3, such as:
Health care centres for out-patient included in the NHS (it includes the
Regional Health Administration (RHAs), the health centres of the Autonomous
Regions of Azores and Madeira and others) – Financing of production
Private social insurance subsystems in health (SAMS and ACS) – Financing
of own production
Corporations + government providers outside the NHS, such as:
The financing of private providers by the NHS and the public and
private social insurance subsystems in health – provision in the form of
subsidies (conventions and agreements with private providers) other
expenditure in favour of beneficiaries;
The financing of other government providers;
The financing of an additional value attributed to the “non-observed”
economy.
In relation to the health care centres for out-patient included in the NHS (it includes
the Regional Health Administration (RHAs), the health centres of the Autonomous
Regions of Azores and Madeira and others), the IGIF was considered the main
source of information, except in relation to ADSE, whose amounts were directly
taken from its report and, the Regional Health Services (RHS) of Azores and
Madeira. The value for NHS financing of the health care centres for out-patient
included in the NHS was derived from the difference between the output and the
remaining funding attributed to other sources of information.
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 7788 ooff 115511
Reports and financial statements provided information that enabled the financing of
the production of the PT-ACS and SAMS private social insurance subsystems to be
attributed.
The financing of the different private and government providers outside the NHS is
essentially based on the INE production estimates, the data supplied by the IGIF,
the Regional Health Services of Azores and Madeira, the Defence Ministry statistical
yearbook, the ADSE, PT-ACS and SAMS reports and financial statements, in
relation to funding of other providers, and production funding estimates for the
NPISHs based on the survey of IPSSs.
Based on information on financing supplied by the different sources mentioned
above and respecting the balance between production/expenditure and financing,
through direct allocation to the category of provider within HP3, the levels of
production/expenditure were determined with the following detail:
♦ Offices of doctors, of dental medicine, other providers of health care and
providers of home care - HP3.1, HP3.2, HP3.3, HP3.6;
♦ Health care centres for out-patient included in the NHS -_HP3.4;
♦ Other Health care centres for out-patient owned by private units and NPIS –
HP3.4;
♦ Medical and diagnostic laboratories;
♦ Other providers of ambulatory health care – HP3.9.
After obtaining all the financing flows from other bodies, such as the NHS, Regional
Health Services, the public and private social insurance subsystems in health, health
insurance, among all the sources that are available on financing and, considering
the enormous importance of the private sector in the provision of out-patient care
almost entirely borne by households, it was decided that the residual financing
required to balance the system should be attributed to private household
expenditure.

FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 7799 ooff 115511
HP.4 – Retail sale and other providers of medical g oods
The value of HP.4.1 production was estimated from the point of view of production
and was derived from the direct appropriation of the figures supplied by INFARMED,
as it was considered that this was a source that was guaranteed to fully represent
the out-patient medicine products sector. In relation to financing, INFARMED was
also considered a quality source, since it publishes data on NHS, public (ADSE and
the Ministry of Justice) and private subsystems and patient costs. In relation to the
public schemes, information from the Ministry of Defence statistical yearbook was
also used.
The level of HP.4.2-HP.4.9 expenditure was determined from the point of view of
production, using the methodology previously described and favouring the IAPI and
final household consumption on the relevant products as sources of information. In
financing, information from the IGIF, in the case of the NHS and the Regional Health
Service of Azores and Madeira, prevailed,, and the reports and financial statements
of the schemes such as ADSE, ADME/FA/A, PT-ACS and SAMS who co-finance
this type of expenditure on the part of their beneficiaries.
The balance of the system, between production and financing, taking into account
the allocation of the financing amounts to the various different financial agents, was
established by considering the difference as the element pertaining to private
household expenditure. The amounts considered in this item concerned the
available data supplied by insurance companies on Prosthetics and Orthopaedic
appliances.
HP.5 – Provision and administration of public healt h programmes
Responsibility for the provision and administration of public health programmes is
attributed to the IPSSs. The amount of expenditure and the respective financing
were calculated in accordance with the production estimates for these institutions,
using the survey on IPSSs. The financing of production is divided between the
Department of Social Security, through partnerships and subsidies, and the NPIs
themselves in the financing of their own production.

HP.6. – General health administration and insurance
For all types of administration and insurance, the level of expenditure was estimated
from the point of view of production. The balance between production and financing
health administration by the government, other forms of social insurance and the
remaining healthcare providers (except for social security) was obtained through the
balance between production and the necessary resources it requires.
HP.7 – Other industries
The levels of production for occupational healthcare provider establishments were
established from the production side. This includes the information taken from the
reports and financial statements of specific companies and the production estimates
for medical units belonging to other private companies, local government, the PSP
and GNR and other government units. The amounts were derived from the
application of the methodology described in Section 3.2. Financing was considered
to have been carried out through financial agents responsible for supporting
expenditure on their production.
Other industries which are secondary producers of health care include universities
and higher education establishments which administer areas related to health care,
and prison and military hospitals, on the assumption that they offer restricted access
to particular groups and are part of other institutions and organisations. In the case
of prison and military hospitals, production was estimated on the basis of information
included in the General Account of the State and financing was established by levels
of production. In universities and higher education institutions, the outputs were
estimated using, preferentially, the results of the SBS; the reports and financial
statements of some private universities that were not included in the SBS but
classified as corporations; the IGIF and the reports and financial statements of the
universities and higher education institutions included as NPIs. The figures for
financing were based on the different sources of information and the residual value
was attributed to the other government units.

HP.9 – Rest of the world
The production of foreign providers in the provision of healthcare services for
national patients was estimated from the point of view of financing. In calculating
expenditure, as there was no information available on the level of production,
information from the IGIF was used, namely the amounts featuring in EU regulations
and in foreign assistance requested by national hospitals from foreign hospitals, and
from the payments and amounts shared with the public ADSE and the private SAMS
subsystems.
The different sources of information used in attributing healthcare expenditure by
provider and by source of funding are presented in Annexe 16.
Table 3 was completed at the same time as the balancing figures for production and
financing were established. Table 3 only records the provision of healthcare services
and does not consider the production of related activities such as GFCF and the
education and training of healthcare personnel.
4.3 - 2nd Phase: Determining expenditure values by healthcar e
function and by provider type (Table 2)
After establishing expenditure by provider group and by source of funding in Table 3,
it was then distributed by healthcare function.
In the case of the NHS, the IPSS hospitals and corporations, direct use was made of
the available information to allocate the expenditure figures for these providers.
In situations where there was no information that would enable the total expenditure
of each provider to be directly allocated to the respective functions, it was necessary
to resort to representative divisional structures originating from the previously
described sources of information that were available. For example, to create the
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt

functional division of production of military hospitals classified as HP.7.9, the similar
general hospital structures supplied by the IGIF were used.
When healthcare expenditure by providers corresponded solely to a particular
function, the figures were used and attributed directly.
The sources of information used to attribute healthcare expenditure by provider and
by function are presented in Annexe 17.

4.4 - 3rd Phase: Determining the funding values by healthcar e
function (Tables 4 and 5):
- Grouped by production (Table 4)
- Including related functions (Table 5)
The third phase of the work was based on calculating the expenditure values by
financing agent and by healthcare function.
In the process of dividing the total expenditure values, the final results of Table 3,
provider versus source of funding, and of Table 2, providers versus healthcare
function, were considered.

and 5 respected the total functional values in Table 2 and the total financing
values in Table 3, thus maintaining the balance of the system. Although Tables 4
and 5 did not display data on expenditure by healthcare provider, due to a lack of
information directly relating healthcare functions to financing, it was understood to
be essential to the total results by provider.
2. The total funding values by provider type featured:
- Direct correspondence between provider / specific function / sources of funding.
Example:
Table 3: HP.4.1� HF.1.1.1 / HF.1.1.2 / HF.2.1 / HF.2.2 / HF.2.3
Table 2: HP.4.1� HC.5.1
Tables 4 and 5: HC.5.1� HF.1.1.1 / HF.1.1.2 / HF.2.1 / HF.2.2 / HF.2.3
- The application of divisional structures provided by the different sources of
information. Concerning the hospitals included in the NHS and the related
amount in the State Budget the annual reports on the “Criteria of Financing of
Hospitals” was used as a reference because it makes the correspondence
between the functions of production and the respective financing.
In this case, the nature of the different providers, i.e. whether they belonged to
the NHS, the private and public social insurance subsystems in health or the
private sector, was respected. Whenever possible, the values for financing were
split by function in accordance with this criterion and the respective or
representative divisional structures were applied.
3. In the process of adjusting the sum of the partial values for financing expenditure
by function to their total values with the aim of balancing the system, the
differences resulting from the application of structures were, in some cases,
attributed to private household expenditure and in other cases to the NHS.
The sources of information used in dividing healthcare functions by source of
information in terms of the different health care providers are presented in Annexe
18.
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 8855 ooff 115511
When the process of allocating financing by healthcare function was complete, the
figures were aggregated in accordance with the criteria required for compiling Tables
4 and 5. In Table 4, the expenditure amounts of the different healthcare functions
were grouped by mode of production, such as in-patient services, out-patient
hospital day-care and domiciliary services. In Table 5, information on health-related
functions was added, by sources of funding.
5. LIMITATIONS
Certain practical and conceptual limitations emerged during the process of
implementing the Health Satellite Account.
The ideal aim was to obtain linear correspondence between the national healthcare
system, in terms of its organisation, institutional relationships and financial flows,
and the system of healthcare accounting proposed by the SHA, in terms of its
concepts and nomenclature, but this was not always achieved. This is due to the fact
that an accounting system is created with the aim of providing a general picture of
the main, shared characteristics of different countries, without taking the specific
characteristics of each one into account. Therefore, there will always be limitations
and a need to adapt and adjust international principles and presuppositions to
different national circumstances. Ultimately, it may be said that even if the
healthcare system is effectively portrayed through the structural methodology
proposed by the SHA, conceptual problems will still remain due to the unavailability
of statistical data or sources of information. However, it was accepted that this
limitation may easily be overcome by using alternative sources of information,
adapting existing sources or creating new questionnaires.
The main limitations were as follows:
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 8866 ooff 115511
The classification of the units in the universe in accordance with the
nomenclature proposed in the SHA manual, using the CAE-Rev. 2.1
Classification of Economic Activities criteria is very limited since, even with the
CAE-Rev. 2.1 breakdown into five digits, it does not meet the requirements for
detailed information stipulated in the SHA. In the specific case of identifying the
activities of individually-registered businesses and their subsequent classification
by provider and function using only the general CAE classification and with no
recourse to additional information, the difficulties were even greater.
In this initial stage of the development of the work it was only possible to detail
the amounts of expenditure in HP.3 (Providers of out-patient health care) into five
main subcategories. The amounts were obtained in the conciliation of the data on
financing and production at the level of each provider. The estimation of the
expenditure at the most detailed level of the subcategories of HP3 became a
difficult task due to the characteristics of national healthcare system that is not
organised very homogenously, meaning that it is not always possible to break
down information according to the requirements of the SHA HP.3 classification.
In fact, many healthcare units are organised as “health centres" in which various
healthcare providers and services are concentrated.
For example:
According to SHA guidelines, offices of physicians should be classified under
HP.3.1 and offices of dentists under HP.3.2. However, in practice medical
offices offer both doctors' and dentists' services and should be classified
under HP.3.4;
Situations where dentists, stomatologists and odontologists practice in the
same office. Stomatologists and odontologists should be classified under
HP.3.1 and dentists under HP.3.2. There are many queries about
classification within the HP level and, in this case, they were eventually
classified under HP.3.4.;
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 8877 ooff 115511
Generally in nursing centres other services are also offered, such as
diagnostic tests, specialist medical appointments, etc.
Moreover, there is no information to clarify this situation with regard to funding. It is
possible to identify the amounts paid by the NHS and the public and private social
insurance subsystems for a particular healthcare service, but impossible to
determine clearly which healthcare provider unit is destined to receive them. To
make matters even more complicated, there is no information available on private
household expenditure.
In HP.2 it was not possible to separate the expenditure on health care provided
by homes for the elderly and residential homes for the elderly. In practice, there
are few entities involved in social work with the elderly who have their own
healthcare units in Portugal. In most cases when it is necessary to seek
healthcare services they resort to the NHS or the private sector providers. In
addition, when health care is provided within these institutions, it is difficult to
separate social work from health care..
The functional classification is ambiguous and subjective, giving rise to certain
conceptual doubts. There are certain situations in which it is possible to classify
some healthcare services under more than one ICHA-HC code, as there is no
more detailed information that would allow them to be allocated more precisely.
For example:
It is difficult to separate long-term nursing care from curative care and
rehabilitation. In most cases, there is no information available to clarify this point.
In these cases, the criterion of "common sense" was applied;
There are some uncertainties in the structures of the health care in the Hospitals
(HP1) as regarding whether the ancillary services should be classified under the
function HC4 (Ancillary services in health) or under HC1.3 (Out-patient care),
namely in HC1.3.1.
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 8888 ooff 115511
In methodological terms the SHA manual is clear regarding the allocation of
services of health care intended to intermediate consumption of the providers in
terms that they should be recorded separately, considering that they are part of
the final product. In practice the definition of HC1.3.1 the basic medical services
of diagnosis and therefore when the ancillary services are provided under an
episode of out-patient care should be there included.
If one considers that the health care services provided under in-patient care are
undoubtedly there included then the same should happen to the same type of
services under out-patient care.
In particular, the problem focuses in whether ancillary services, such as
diagnosis, provided by hospitals should recorded as HC4 or as intermediate
consumption of health services of in-patient and therefore recorded under
HC1.3.1.
From the available data sources it is possible to obtain the amounts of diagnosis
services that are invoiced under out-patient as they are recorded separately
under a sales item. However the option should be the separation of all the
diagnosis services in a Hospital then it would be difficult to isolate the amount of
diagnosis services under in-patient. Nevertheless it could be done for public
hospitals requiring additional work.
As previously mentioned it is easy to obtain data for ancillary services separately
in out-patient, but it is difficult to isolate the respective amount for in-patient
because in terms of the cost accounting of the hospitals in-patient is considered
as a “pure service” equivalent to an episode. In private hospitals, the situation is
the same.
Should the classification of all ancillary services in HC4 the option adopted then
it will be possible to do it for public hospitals, by using their detailed cost
accounting, but it will not be possible for the private hospitals where such data
are not available.
It was impossible to exclude the amount of expenditure on terminally-ill in-
patients from in-patient curative care, as no information was available;
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 8899 ooff 115511
It is not clear how the expenditure on rehabilitation for the blind should be
classified. Apparently it should be classified under HC.1.9 but it could also be
allocated to HC.2;
It was not possible to break down function HC.1.3, out-patient curative care, into
its components - basic medical and diagnostic services, out-patient dental care,
all other specialised health care and all other in-patient curative care - as the
requisite information was not available.
The resolution of problems relating to functional classification will involve adapting
and revising the ICHA-HC nomenclature to fit the circumstances and, at the same
time, making efforts to obtain data that will meet the information needs.
The amounts concerning the NHS for output/expenditure are on an accrual basis.
However the amounts on financing for the same providers are on a “cash basis”
meaning that they do not fully reflect the accounting period and therefore distort
the figures for some financing agents. It is expected to have an improvement in
this situation due to the Public Official Accounting Plan in Health that is into force
since 2003.
The estimation of the production of the households in home care (personal care)
to their relatives temporarily or long-term care is underestimated but due to
conceptual reasons considering that this is the SHA rule. Therefore, according to
SHA, the amounts considered correspond to the social transfers to the
households that provide home care (personal care) to their families. The eligibility
criterion of these transfers is not associated at all to th corresponding “imputed
production”.
With regard to the registration of expenditure by units responsible for the
administration of social protection, particularly the administration of the public
and private social insurance subsystems registered under HP.6.3 and HP.6.4,
respectively, the SHA manual states explicitly that only administrative services
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 9900 ooff 115511
must be registered. From a conceptual point of view this approach may not be
correct, particularly for those who may be both financers and providers. From a
practical point of view, it is not viable to isolate the administrative services to
record them under the provider category HP.6.3 and HP6.4. In the case where
units both provide and finance, administration is an ancillary activity and isolating
it does not make economic sense, that is, it is conceptually meaningless. It only
makes sense to include in HP.6.3 and HP.6.4 the social insurance subsystems
that finance health care only.
6. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE NATIONAL ACCOUNTS AND THE
HEALTH SATELLITE ACCOUNT
The main differences between the National Accounts and the Health Satellite
Account which explain why separate results are obtained are as follows:
Level of correspondence: There is no direct correspondence between the Health
Satellite Account and Section 85 – Health Care and Social Work. The Health
Satellite Account covers the whole of Section 851 – Health Care – and part of
Section 853 – Social Work related only to health care;
Statistical Units in Section 851: The National Accounts include forensic medicine
institutes in Section 851, as recommended by EUROSTAT. These were,
however, excluded form the Health Satellite Account due to the specific nature of
their activities. Nevertheless it is important to analyse this question, given that
these units employ workers who are connected to health care.
Methodologies and concepts: (of non-market producers)
§5.26 recommends that the output of retailers is measured by trade and
distribution margins. However this option was not adopted, as it was not
considered completely correct. The output versus expenditure has to be
balanced or, in other words, the value of goods and services used in

consumption must be equal to the value of the resources available for
consumption by resident households.

CCHHAAPPTTEERR IIIIII –– FFUUTTUURREE PPRROOJJEECCTT DDEEVVEELLOOPPMMEENNTTSS Future methodological developments should be based on improving the quality of
the results of the Health Satellite Accounts and will take the following into account:
The production of methodological studies on particular areas of health care with
the aim of overcoming the limitations of the ICHA classification system and the
estimates of production, funding and health care;
The search for alternative sources of information in areas where there are gaps;
Improvements to the information made available by the existing sources;
Compilation of new tables envisaged in the SHA manual, namely Table 8, with
information relating to price indices, and Table 10, containing employment data
and, table 7, containing information on expenditure by gender and age, in order
to supplement the information to provide a more in-depth economic analysis of
the sector.
The methodology presented in the document was used to estimate the definitive
accounts for 2000, 2001 and 2002. At the same time price and volume indices were
estimate for the period 2000-2003. Therefore it is important to an indepth analysis of
the estimated results, namely the deflated figures of expenditure in health care
through the price and volume indices obtained. It is rather important to analyse the
growth and behaviour of the main variables that explain the expenditure in order to
assess the quality of the results.
Simultaneously the methodology of estimating provisional Health Accounts was also
developed, namely for 2003 where the main components of the expenditure were
calculated by using indices and structures in health care. Nevertheless the
development of the methodology to compile provision Health Accounts will very
much rely on the conclusions of the exhaustive analysis of the results of the
definitive accounts associated to the estimated price and volume indices.
The results of the provisional accounts will meet the data needs for the most recent
years, namely after 2002. For instance, the reply of the joint questionnaire
SSaatteelllliittee HHeeaalltthh AAccccoouunnttss MMeetthhooddoollooggiiccaall RReeppoorrtt
FFeebbrruuaarryy 22000066 PPaaggee 9933 ooff 115511
OECD/EUROSTAT/WHO “SHA Data Collection” will be based on the preliminary
results for the Health Accounts for 2004.
Furthermore these preliminary data will be converted into provisional and will
become definitive through the update and integration of the final data taken directly
from data sources when the definitive National Accounts are available for purposes
of confrontation.
The level of detail obtained in the results of the Health Satellite Account will depend
on the sources of information available, given that final the objective of the project is
to comply as closely as possible with the details of the ICHA nomenclature.
The Health Satellite Account was compiled in terms of national territory. However, in
future there are plans to move towards regionalising of the Account, with the first
phase based on NUTS I (Mainland, Azores and Madeira), followed by NUTS II
(Norte, Centro, Lisboa, Alentejo and Algarve).
In the short term, assuming the same resources are available, the following are
considered feasible:
Compiling of the Preliminary Account for 2004 and later the Provisional Account
for the same year (SHA Tables 2-5);
Compiling of the Preliminary Account for 2005 (SHA Tables 2-5);
Compiling of the Definitive Account for 2003 (SHA Tables 2-5);
Improvement of the methodology at the level of the imputation of the expenditure
figures by function of health care and provider;;
Estimation of price and volume indices for 2004.
Assuming that resources are consolidated:
Compilation of table 7 in SHA (expenditure by age and gender);
Completing Table 10 (employment);
Set up of a database for the Health Accounts.

ICHA-HF Sources of healthcare funding SEC-95
HF.1 General government (S.13). – The general government sector, including all institutional units that are non-market producers whose production is intended for individual and collective consumption, mainly financed by compulsory payments made by units from other sectors and all institutional units primarily involved in the redistribution of national revenue and wealth. The institutional units classified in this sector are as follows: a) general government institutional units (excluding public producers organised as venture capital or, under special legislation, endowed with independent legal status, or as quasi-corporate enterprises if classified under the financial or non-financial sectors) which manage and fund a range of activities destined for collective consumption– mainly the supply of non-market items and services; b) non-profit institutions with independent legal status acting as other non-market producers, controlled and financed mainly by the government; c) autonomous pension funds (compulsory social security or social insurance funds managed by the government). The general government sector can be divided into four sub-sectors: central government, state/provincial, local and social security funds.
S.13
HF.1.1 General government, excluding social security funds (S.1311, S.1312 and S.1313). – Includes the sub-sectors of central (S.1311), state (S.1312) and local (S.1313) government. The central government sub-sector (S.1311) includes all the administrative organs of the state and other central institutional units whose powers normally extend to the whole of the economic territory, with the exception of social security funds. This sub-sector also covers non-profit organisations mainly controlled and financed by the government whose powers extend to the whole of the economic territory. The state/provincial government sub-sector (S.1312) consists of administrations which are separate institutional units and exercise certain government functions at a level below that of the central government and above that of the local state institutional units, excepting the administration of social security funds. This sub-sector includes non-profit organisations controlled and financed mainly by the state/provincial sub-sector whose powers are restricted to the state/provincial economic territory. The local government sub-sector (S.1313) comprises all administrations whose powers cover only a part of the economic territory, except for services relating to local social security funds. This sub-sector also includes non-profit institutional units mainly controlled and financed by local governments whose powers are restricted to the economic territory of these administrations.
S.1311, S.1312 e S.1313
HF.1.2 Social security funds (S.1314). – The social security funds sub-sector includes all central institutional units, both state/provincial and local, whose main activity consists of granting welfare benefits and which meet the following criteria: a) certain groups in the population are obliged by legal provisions or regulations to participate in the scheme or to pay contributions; b) independently of the role they play as governing bodies or employers, governments are responsible for managing these units in relation to setting or approving contributions and payments (there being normally no direct link between the amount of contributions paid by an individual and the risks to which they are exposed).

To classify the sources of funding for health care, four sub-sectors should be distinguished: a) private social insurance (S.125); b) private insurance enterprises (other than social insurance) (S.125); c) private household out-of-pocket expenditure (S.14); d) NPISHs and societies (other than social insurance) (S.15).
S.125, S.14 e S.15
HF.2.1 Private social insurance (S.125). – This sector comprises all social insurance funds in health (other than social security funds). It includes programmes set up by the government for their employees only.
S.125
HF.2.2 Private insurance enterprises (other than social insurance) (S.125). – This sector comprises all private insurance enterprises (other than social insurance). It includes both profit and not-for-profit insurance schemes, except for social insurance.
S.125
HF.2.3 Private household out-of-pocket expenditure (S.14). – private household expenditure on health care, after taking contributions (social security, health insurance) into account, i.e. costs which cannot be further distributed (expenses which remain household expenses as a whole).1
S.14
HF.2.4 NPISHs (other than social insurance) (S.15)1. – Private institutions providing goods or services to households free of charge or at prices that are not economically significant. They include private philanthropic organisations that supply goods and services on a non-market basis to households in need, including those worst affected by natural disasters and war. They are financed by governments, corporations and individuals, including transfers from non-resident entities (in the case of the latter, essentially national agencies belonging to international humanitarian organisations based abroad).
S.15
HF.2.5 Corporations (other than health insurance) (S.15). – Includes all corporations and quasi-corporations whose principal activity is the production of market goods and services (other than health insurance). Includes all resident non-profit institutions that are market producers of goods or non-financial services.
S.15
HF.3 Rest of the world (S.2). – Includes non-resident institutional units or those that reside abroad.
S.2
1 This indicator is difficult to access and requires specific statistical support (S.14). 1 When these institutions are of little significance, they are not considered in this sector; their operations are included in those of households (S.14).
